This patch breaks wireless support on RockPro64. At least the access
point is not usable, station mode not tested.

brcmfmac: brcmf_c_preinit_dcmds: Firmware: BCM4359/9 wl0: Mar  6 2017
10:16:06 version 9.87.51.7 (r686312) FWID 01-4dcc75d9

Reverting this patch makes the access point show up again with linux-5.14 .
